tonight we are going to be talking about the Great Commission
0:06
the gospel of the Kingdom is what not only pastors ministers
0:16
evangelists those who preach behind a Pulpit it's not only us who are
0:22
commanded to preach the gospel Jesus gave that commandment to every single
0:29
one of his followers and we're going to start off tonight in
0:35
Matthew chapter 28 where Jesus gives the
0:40
Great Commission to his disciples who had become who would become the apostles
0:46
they were going to be the apostles when the Holy Spirit would come upon them that
0:52
Jesus had given them the promise of the Holy Spirit he told them to go and wait
1:00
for the Holy Spirit to come down upon them and they became the apostles
1:09
but here in Matthew chapter 28 Jesus says and in verse 16 it says
1:17
then the 11 disciples went away into Galilee into a mountain where Jesus had
1:25
appointed them and when they saw him they worshiped him but some doubt it
1:33
and Jesus came and he spake unto them saying all power is getting unto me in
1:41
heaven and in Earth go ye therefore and teach All Nations
1:51
baptizing them in the name of the father and of the son and of the Holy ghosts
1:58
teaching them to observe all things whatsoever
2:04
I have commanded you and those I Am With You Always even unto the end of the
2:15
world [Music] now this as I said is not just something
2:23
that is commanded of preachers or the apostles the eleven and then Paul who
2:30
would eventually become an apostle no it is something that we are all supposed to
2:36
do we see in Matthew 24 in talking about his return his second coming and that
2:45
Judgment of this world Jesus said that before that would happen he said the gospel of the Kingdom
2:54
would be preached unto all nations for a witness
2:59
and then the end would come well
3:06
we are about to that point the gospel of the Kingdom has pretty much reached All
3:14
Nations [Music] and
3:19
I think I saw something a few years back actually that said we were
3:27
I think it said like 10 years away and this was years back so we were like 10
3:34
years away from the gospel being preached
3:40
unto all nations I think there's like right now I don't
3:46
know if you remember but there's an island I want to say it's off in the Pacific of of
3:52
Aborigines these people who they live away from society they have no
3:59
technology they are primitive people and they've never received the Gospels
4:07
and it wasn't too long ago maybe a year ago two at the most there was this uh
4:13
Christian Missionary who defied the government and went over
4:18
there and tried to give them the gospel and he was killed they killed us
4:26
but other than those people and maybe you know a few people in the different
4:34
countries the gospel of the Kingdom has pretty much reached all over the Earth
4:41
[Music] and it's not up to us
4:47
to save people we we have no ability we have no power to save we have authority
4:55
in Jesus Christ over serpents and scorpions and all the powers of the
5:02
enemy all the powers of Darkness that we can't save people we are the body of
5:08
Christ on Earth but we have no ability to save we only have the abilities
5:15
to plant seeds and that is exactly what we are doing
5:21
when we fulfill the Great Commission for Matthew 28.
5:27
we see in Matthew Chapter 13 Jesus was preaching in Parables like he often did
5:35
and the great multitudes were gathered together unto him and
5:41
so he went into a ship and he sat and the whole multitude stood upon the shore
5:47
and it says in verse 4 or it says in verse 3 rather and he
5:55
spanked many things unto them in Parables saying behold every sower went
6:01
forth to sows and when he sowed some seeds fell by the wayside
6:06
and the fouls came and devoured them up some fell upon Stony places where they
6:13
had not much Earth and Earth with they sprung up because they had no deepness
6:19
of Earth and when the sun was up that there were scorched and because they had
6:25
no roots they withered away and some fell among thorns and the Thorns sprung
6:32
up and choked them but others fell into Good Grounds and
6:38
they brought forth Foods some a hundred-fold some 60 fold and
6:44
some 30 fold he who has ears to hear Let Him hear
6:51
and the disciples came and said unto him why speaketh thou unto them
6:59
in parables and he answered and he said unto them because it is given unto yous
7:05
he told the disciples it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of
7:13
Heaven but unto them it is not given
7:18
or or whosoever had to to him shall be
7:24
Givens and he shall have more abundance but whosoever hath not from him shall be
7:32
taken away even that he had therefore speak I to them in Parables because they
7:41
singing see not and hearing they hear not neither do they understand
7:48
how many of you can relate to that I know in this quote-unquote woke society
7:56
that we live in today with uh the different
8:01
versions of truth and the different movements of Truth and everybody's got
8:07
the truth except for the only truth that matters the truth of the word of God
8:16
and we see here in Matthew 13 the Disciples of Jesus Christ they were able
8:24
to understand through the Holy Spirit those is the same with us we are to go
8:32
out and plant seeds the seeds of the Gospel
8:38
we may not see the fruit of that Harvest right away [Music]
8:44
but someone else will come along and they'll water that seed and eventually
8:51
eventually according to God's will there will be a harvest and it is up to
8:59
the Holy Spirit and God the Father through Jesus Christ
9:05
to give salvation but it is on to us to preach the gospel and that's not
9:13
being done last week we talked about the Judgment of Babylon and the reality is still but
9:22
I do not think that we truly understand just how real a place hell was and if we
9:31
do understand how real place it is then we obviously just do not care about our
9:38
brothers and sisters and by our brothers and sisters I need all those in the
9:44
world who have not received the love of the truth
9:50
Jesus Christ because if we cared the way that we claim to care
9:56
if we truly cared about following Jesus Christ if we
10:03
truly cared whether or not [Music] strangers loved ones young old those who
10:12
are lost who truly cares whether or not they were going to go to hell and we
10:18
would tell them the truth we can tell them the truth in love there's a loving lady say Hey Brother
10:25
Hey sister if you don't repent you're going to hell it was real
10:32
and once there it's inescapable once we take our left breath on this
10:40
Earth friends that is it there there's no more chances
10:45
now [Music] I want you guys to turn in your Bibles
10:54
to the book of Acts in the book of Acts
11:01
[Music] chapter
11:07
17. Paul is preaching to Athens in the book
11:13
of Acts chapter 17. now
11:21
in Matthew chapter 28 when Jesus gave the Great
11:26
Commission there was only 11 disciples present and the apostles
11:35
had not yet become the apostles the day of Pentecost had not yet happened and the Holy Spirit had not Fallen upon them
11:43
but here in Acts chapter 17 that has already happened the church
11:49
has formed the Holy Spirit has fallen upon the apostles
11:54
Paul was persecuting Christians and Jesus came
12:00
upon him on the road to uh Rome I believe it was and
12:07
he struck him by and he said Paul or Saul Saul why does thou persecute me
12:14
and we know the story we won't get into it too deeply but Saul became all the
12:21
apostles because of that experience he said friends that is not something
12:28
that's going to happen to everyone Jesus does not come down and literally
12:36
give everyone a range rate experience we as the body of Christ must fulfill
12:44
the great commissions and go out and tell people how they can be born again
12:52
we see here in Acts chapter 17 in verse 17.
13:00
Paul is in the synagogues he's talking to the Jewish people here he says
13:06
there it says therefore he in the synagogue with the Jews and with The
13:11
Devout persons and in the markets daily with them that met with him
13:20
uh wait a minute I I uh yes you start in verse 15. and those that conducted Paul
13:26
brought him unto Athens and receiving a commandment unto Silas and timotheus or
13:33
to come to him with all speed they departed now why Paul waited for them at
13:39
Athens his Spirit was stirred in him when he saw the city holy given unto
13:48
idolatries then it says in verse 17 therefore
13:55
disputed him in the synagogue with the Jews and with The Devout persons and in
14:01
the markets daily with them that met with him Paul Saul the sin going all around him
14:09
the idolatry how much I idolatry did we see daily I don't care where you live
14:17
what city you're in what state you're in or for that matter
14:22
what country you are in sin is all around us
14:28
and if we have the Holy Spirit residing inside of us the way the Apostle Paul
14:34
did when we see it our spirit is going to be stirred inside of us
14:41
and we will not be able to help but to Speak Life unto these dead men and women
14:50
who are on their way to hell it says in verse 18 then certain
14:58
philosophers of the Epic Cruces and of the stoics
15:05
encountered hymns and some said what will this babbler say other
15:13
Psalm he seemed to be a set of fourth of strange Gods because he preached unto
15:20
them Jesus and the resurrection and they took him and they brought him into
15:26
areophagus saying may we know what this new doctrine wherefore thou speaks is
15:34
for thou bring a certain strange things to our ears we would know therefore what
15:42
these things means for all the Athenians and strangers
15:48
which were there spent their time and nothing else but either to tell or to hear some new
15:55
things then Paul stood in the midst of Mars Hill
16:01
for those of you who don't know Mars Hill was literally
16:06
a place dedicated to the Roman god Mars and he said we men of Athens
16:13
I perceive that in all things ye are two superstitious
16:20
for as I pass by and beheld your devotions I found an altar with this
16:27
inscriptions to the unknown God whom therefore ye ignorantly worship Him
16:36
declare I unto you these Romans and Athens they were literally
16:45
they had an altar set up to God the Father who they declared as the unknown
16:51
God and Paul said it is him that I declare
16:57
unto you [Music] the god that made the world and all
17:03
things therein seeing that he is Lord of Heaven and Earth and he dwelleth not in temples
17:11
made with hands neither is worshiped with men's hands as though he needed
17:18
anything seeing he giveth to all life and death
17:23
and all things and hath made of one blood all nations
17:29
of men for to dwell on all the face of the Earth and have determined the times
17:36
before appointed and the bounds of their habitation that they should seek the
17:42
Lord and happily they might feel after him and find him so he do not far from
17:51
every one of us for in him we live and move and have our Deeds a certain
18:00
also of your own poets have said for we are also his offspring
18:07
for as much then as we are The Offspring of God we ought not to think that the
18:13
godhead is like unto gold or silver or stones engraven by Art and man's advice
18:22
and the times of this ignorance God winked at
18:28
but now commandeth all in everywhere to
18:34
repent because he hath appointed a day in which
18:39
he will judge the world in righteousness by that man he hath ordained
18:46
wherever he has given Assurance unto all men and that he hath raised him from the
18:53
Deads and when they heard of the resurrection of the Dead some up
19:00
and others said we will hear thee again of this matter
19:08
so Paul departed from them this friends is a perfect example of
19:15
what we will experience in fulfilling the Great Commission
19:22
it was just last week or this this week that we're in now
19:29
Tuesday when I went out visiting with the ended up being with the homeless I
19:36
went door to door first but I didn't have much luck going
19:42
door to door so I ended up going in meeting with the homeless and the
19:49
downside and I had a lot more success there people wanted to hear what
19:56
I had to say some of them of course were just listening because they wanted me to
20:03
give them some money others had hit rock bottoms
20:09
and they were grasping for anything to pull them out of the pit that they had
20:15
found themselves in and when we go out and do what Paul did
20:23
here in Acts 17 it's some will think we're crazy some will have
20:30
nothing to do with what we tell them they'll mock us the same as they marked
20:38
Paul what others will hear
20:45
again on this matter they'll want to hear more
20:50
we are simply to plant the seeds of the Gospel
20:56
and then it's up to the Holy Spirit as long as we brothers and sisters are
21:04
obedient in the Commandment that Jesus gave us
21:11
it really all boils down to the message of the Gospels
21:18
it's the new commandment Jesus gave us which is love one another
21:26
and if we truly love one another then we will tell them the truth we will spread
21:33
the gospel message with them the gospel message of course seeing
21:38
Jesus crucified and Resurrected that is the Blessed hope of the Gospel
21:47
Jesus was the firstborn from the dead our blessed hope
21:53
is that we too will be resurrected just as he was resurrected oh
22:02
this is why we must be born again when we are born again we have literally died
22:09
to our old selves the old man the old woman the old person that we were is
22:16
getting gone it's been crucified with Christ
22:22
and we have been born again in spirit and we are now New Creations
22:30
and citizens of new jerusalems and the kingdom of God
22:37
and it is our job to be ambassadors all of these scriptures be ambassadors that
22:45
means go out and try to grow the kingdom of God by preaching the Gospels
22:51
we see people we see so many people day in and day out
22:57
who are lost and on their way to hell some
23:03
think they're happy in this life others are miserable but without Jesus Christ
23:11
they will all have the same result in the end once they take their last breath
23:19
and leave this earth behind
23:25
then there's nothing left but judgment the word of God says is appointed unto
23:32
every man wants to die and then the judgment
23:41
we do not have anything
23:47
ahead of us but death and Hell without the blood of Jesus Christ covering our
23:54
sins we must have that blood covering our
24:00
sins we are coming into a time where the holy
24:08
spirit is going to once again be poured out of All Flesh just as the Book of
24:15
Joel says the same as happened on the day of Pentecost we're gonna see the power of the holy
24:24
spirit in the body of Christ those of you who are awaiting a secret
24:32
Rapture to get you off the Earth so that you don't have to live through the hour
24:41
of tribulation friends I hate to tell you this
24:47
but the truth is there will be no secret rapture
24:53
[Music] God will not take us out of the world
24:59
before the tribulation he will get us through he will keep us as the
25:08
Book of Revelation says that if we keep the word of his patience
25:15
then he will also teach us that word keep their means to hold to protect to
25:23
watch over we see a mirror of this
25:28
in what happened in the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D when the Romans came
25:33
in and destroyed the temple we know how just as Jesus prophesied in
25:39
Matthew 24 not one stone was left standing of the temples
25:48
and it is [Music] so horrible that I can't describe all of
25:56
it here the things that the Jews in Jerusalem went through and the things
26:02
that they were reduced to doing just to survive when the Romans had seeds the city and
26:10
they literally starved them out we like to think of the Holocaust in
26:17
World War II as the worst period for the Jewish people
26:26
in history but it really isn't what happened in Jerusalem in 70 A.D
26:33
killed many many more Jews than the Holocaust in World War II
26:38
but the Christians the Christians they didn't die
26:45
[Music] there is not one record of a single
26:51
Christian casualty although there were many Christians living in Jerusalem the
26:57
reason for that is because they knew what Jesus said Jesus said
27:05
when you see Jerusalem encompassed about around about with our knees
27:12
Flee for the mountains don't even go back in your house and get your coats
27:17
and they did they went into a place called teller outside of Jerusalem
27:23
and their God kept them provided their needs
27:29
and the same will be true for you and I if we are living during the day of
27:36
tribulation if we will read the words of the
27:43
prophecy in Revelation and we will
27:48
listen to what it says and when we see it happening
27:54
know what to do we literally have the manual on how to live through the
28:02
end times but for those of us who are not expecting to be here then we're not paying any
28:09
attention to the manual and therefore those people will be
28:15
caught off guard this is why what you believe about
28:21
the end times is so important because if you follow a man-made interpretation
28:30
of the end times then you're going to be caught off guard you're not going to be ready
28:36
for what the Bible calls a time of trouble unlike the world has ever seen
28:43
or will ever see again together [Music]
28:49
friends we're coming upon that time very very soon it's coming closer and closer
28:56
every day and this is why it is so important now
29:03
more than ever to preach the gospel of the Kingdom not just me and other
29:10
pastors behind the pulpit but you you are commanded to preach the gospel
29:18
to make disciples of all Nations [Music]
29:26
you are commanded to tell people about the one who died for them
29:33
to tell them how they can escape the judgment that automatically comes
29:42
from sin the Bible says that we've all sinned and
29:48
fallen short of the glory of God [Music]
29:54
the Bible also says [Music] in John chapter 3
30:02
verse 16. it's actually in verse 14. it says in as
30:11
Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness even so must the son of man be lifted up that whosoever believeth in
30:20
him should not perish but have eternal life for God so loved the world that he gave
30:28
his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but
30:34
have everlasting lives a lot of times we stop right there we
30:39
don't go any further but that's not where it ends
30:46
this is where God sent not his son into the world to condemn the world but that
30:51
the world through him might be saved he that believeth on him is not
30:57
condemned but he that believeth not is condemned already because he hath not believed in
31:05
the name of the only begotten son of God and this is the condemnation
31:11
that light is coming to the world and Men love Darkness rather than light
31:18
because their deeds were evil for everyone that do it evil hated the
31:25
light neither cometh to the light lest his deeds should be reproved
31:32
but he that doeth truth cometh to the light that his deeds may be made
31:37
manifest they are wrought in God after these things came Jesus and his
31:45
disciples into the land of Judea and there he carried with them and
31:52
baptized friends
31:58
Jesus came preaching and teaching the gospel of the Kingdom he came as an
32:04
example to every one of us he was baptized by John
32:11
[Music] he preached the gospel of the Kingdom
32:17
taught the way of life and salvation the New
32:23
Covenant the better way oh because if the law of Moses could have
32:31
saved anyone then there would have been no need for Jesus but the law could not save anyone no
32:40
amount of sacrificed bulls or Lambs or doves could ever
32:47
cover all the sins
32:52
only the precious shed blood of the Lamb of God could do that
32:59
[Music] we are to follow Jesus's examples
33:07
and teach and preach Christ crucified [Music]
33:14
so many times I hear brothers and sisters
33:19
talk about when Jesus sent out the 12 and then the 70 and how Jesus told them
33:28
for those who didn't receive the truth that they were preaching to
33:35
knock the dust off their feet
33:41
but friends that's not what Jesus commanded us to do
33:47
that's not what that's not the Commandment the Great Commission he gave his disciples
33:53
he gave his disciples and us the commission and the Commandment to
34:00
make disciples ourselves not Disciples of us but
34:06
Disciples of Jesus Christ a disciple is a student we get this idea
34:13
in our head that because Jesus had disciples who one day became the apostles that a disciple is great no a
34:22
disciple is just a student and Jesus said that the disciple is not greater
34:28
than his master or his Lords and the servant is not
34:35
greater than his master a disciple is not some a disciple and an
34:41
apostle of two very different things we are commanded to go out and make
34:48
apostles and we are not apostles
34:54
but we are commanded to go out and preach the gospel share the good news of
35:01
Jesus Christ crucified
35:06
if you love one another if you have the love of Jesus Christ inside of you that is what
35:13
you will do you need to seek
35:23
the love of Jesus Christ if you don't have it if you feel hatred in your heart or if
35:31
you feel anything in your heart for your
35:37
enemies other than love then you need to repent ask for
35:44
forgiveness and ask for God
